Tonight I came across a blog post by Juniper Bell on the Nine Naughty Novelists site and let's just say a picture is worth a thousands words :) Where am I going with this??.. Her title of the post is "Summer Eye Candy". The title for some reason it made me think of that 80's song "I want candy" by Bow Wow Wow.
Do you ever get that? Certain words, smells, or colors trigger a memory? I do all the time. Hair mouse and Aquanet hairspray, (you know you used it too!) makes me think of my horribly huge hair I used to have. Neon colors.. Oh lord.....The other day when I was driving down the road and say a checkered, yes I said checkered motorcycle go by and the guy on the bike was wearing MC Hammer type pants -neon aqua, with a neon green shirt, and a hot pink backpack!! I sware I am not making this up. I chased him down for about 3 miles trying to get his pic but no luck.
Anyway I hope you enjoy the songs I have posted and I hope that they trigger a happy memory for you as well.
and Cameo's "Candy"
Songs always remind me of specific times in my life. I also remember the song 'Candy' by Iggy Pop and someone else whose name I can't remember. Thanks for the vids.
